Q: What type of motorcycle is suitable?

A: Any off road motorcycle with road or recreational registration is fine as long as it is in sound mechanical condition. All bikes must be fitted with headlight and brake light.

All machines will be inspected prior to being allowed to start the event.

Bikes must have the number plate fitted, (not carried in pockets or bum bags). Any machine deemed by organisers to be excessively noisy will not be allowed to start the event. Be warned! – make sure your muffler is properly packed and that muffler baffles/inserts are in place. DELWP (park rangers) will be on hand and may conduct noise testing at their discretion. It’s recommended that tyres are in excellent condition and not too worn for maximum traction and enjoyment. It is a good idea to carry a snack for when you are on the trail, enough water to drink, and basic spares like spare levers, puncture repair kit etc.
